Ulin immediately felt the skeletal cleric's cold death magic struggle to extinguish his sorcerous fire and fail. He heard the creature's enraged scream and watched with grim pleasure as, one-by-one, the dead soldiers attempted to cross his barrier and were instantly consumed in the purple wall of fire.

However, the enemy's failed assault was short-lived. Not even a half-dozen of the skeletons attempted to cross through the fire wall before their commander hissed at them to stop in whatever cold, dead language it was speaking. The noise was almost indistinguishable from the flames that protected them.

“Neat trick,” Antog croaked. “Got any that look like us getting the hell out of here?”

Downfall didn't need encouragement to hold his ground. He certainly wasn't going to run through a ring of fire to attack the undead army. He gave a quick nod, and continued scanning the wall for any breaches.

Beldyn was relived to see the dwarf standing. He wasnt sure if the dwarf was just severely wounded or if he was brought back from the dead. "Praise be to Paladine." The cleric stated as Ulin began to evoke a spell. For his part, Beldyn turned to watch the undead. He was grateful for the wall of fire but was unsure about being boxed into a small area. "I can get us out of here, I just dont know where we will go."

Antog listened as well, warily backing up towards the sorcerer, never taking his eyes off of the crackling flames that held the dead at bay. Wightwilter remained poised and ready to strike in his white-knuckled grip.

One with the magical fire that he fueled, Ulin felt it before he truly heard it.

“Are the flames dying out?" Tasslehoff asked.

They weren't dying. They'd been silenced.

The sharp-eared kender had heard what Ulin understood instinctively, even if Tasslehoff didn't understand what his ears were telling him. A ten foot-long section of Ulin's wall of fire, the portion that guarded Beldyn and Flint's flanks, flickered and danced in the night without making a single crackle or hiss.

Ulin wasted no time reading the spidery words off the scroll. In the process, his concentration slipped away from the fiery wall. It would drop in seconds. The feeling of gossamer covered the group, bathing everyone in magic.

"You must all stay close, within 10 feet. Do not stray...."

OOC: Ulin does not concentrate on the Wall of Fire. It will have one more round of existence.

Ulin casts Invisibility Sphere from the scroll. It should last for five minutes.
